Good for them. What relevant data should they be using for technology that (along with its market) is as immature as eBook reading devices?

Sorry, I should've explained myself better.

I don't think data collected thus far is relevant because the industry/market is in its infancy, and trends are probably only ever so loosely indicative of what the future will bring.
